How can I get my 1 year old to drink cows milk?

Have you tried warming it up, so it is the temp of your milk?

At 1, he needs 800mg of calcium a day which can come from milk, or other foods. a cup of milk has 300mg and so does a cup of yogurt. 1oz of cheddar cheese has 200mg. There are many foods other than milk that you can give him to meet his calcium needs. You can buy calcium fortifed breads and cereals. make oatmeal or cereal with milk. So, since you need to wean him, you can just stop milk for a while, give him other foods with calcium...(whole milk products, they need the fats for brain development.) then when he is used of not getting your milk you can introduce it again. I personally wouldnt give flavored milk, or to much juice...to much sugar. and he may not want to go to white milk if he had the others. For the juice, you can get calcium fortified juices.

I agree with rachel about putting a small amount of strawberry or chocolate syrup in the milk. My youngest son was exclusively breastfed, and when it was time to wean, he had issues. I started putting like 1/2 tsp ( vs normal serving size of 2 tablespoons) of flavored syrup in his cup to sweeten the milk. There were times when he was young that he refused to take it, but I persisted, and he did accept it eventually. He is now 3.5 years old and goes through phases when it comes to his milk consumption. I rarely give him full strength chocolate milk ( except in restaurants as a treat) unless it is a day he has not eaten well and I am giving him instant breakfast instead of flavor syrup. It has not added any significant weight to add the flavor to his milk. He is 3.5 years old and weighs about 35 pounds.

Oh my gosh. Do not put chocolate or strawberry syrup in milk for your son. Babies do not need that type of sugar. Jesus people.

Cows milk is for baby cows not for baby humans. If you can't breastfeed, consider switching to formula until age 2. After that, he does not need milk a source of nutrition at all.

Try putting a little chocolate syrup in it and let him drink it. Then eventually cut back on the amount of syrup you put in the milk until he is used to the plain milk. Also, offer it to him in cereal for breakfast so he starts getting used to it with his breakfast cereal...that is what I did for my son and that worked great.

All little ones decrease than the age of two could be eating a minimum of sixteen ozer according to day of undiluted entire milk. you ought to re-examine his weight loss plan and end diluting his milk. you're removing needed food and fat for his little physique to advance and advance exact. make constructive he gets dissimilar end result and vegetables in the process the day. Fruit juice rather facilitates loosen stools, as do raisins, prune juice, etc. If after changing his weight loss plan, he continues to be having issues, you may call your pediatrician.

When i put my daughter on whole milk I mixed it. I use a little formula and more whole milk and then I just cut it completely and she was fine.

I would try putting either strawberry/chocolate syrup, or you can even try small amounts of sugar. Then as he starts to drink, slowly limit the sugar intake. It will make him bigger.

my grandson wasn't breast feed but he wouldn't drink milk either try 2 percent its not so hard on their bellies they throw up vitamin d milk in chunks
